Way to go USA. I just remembered why I don't watch your network.

I did not watch every episode, but every episode I saw seemed like a build up. Wait till next season and see how this dynamic plays out. None of them felt self contained. I also felt like the characters were making decisions to keep them self lame so that they could make jokes about how lame they are. Overall though it felt like the show fit into this network perfectly.

First they cancel Covert Affairs and now Benched. I liked both of them. Very disappointed.

No great surprise in this being cancelled. I could watch Eliza Coupe all day long, she is so funny.

I liked the main character and the smart-alec guy who would have been her romantic interest. However, I disliked the supporting cast greatly. They were dorky and weird, but not in a good way. I didn't think their storylines were very funny. Am I the only one that thinks the show would've been funnier if she had STAYED at corporate law? The big-chested one that got her promotion and her stuck-up coworkers at that place seemed funnier than the low-rent weirdos at the public defenders office. Just my 2 cents.

big disappointment, great show. USA seems to be dumping a lot of shows this year, why they haven't trashed that horrible BS Chrisley Knows Best with that gay dad is beyond me. they still show it about 20 times a week even though it's between seasons.

I wanted to like this show. I loved Better Off Ted so I was so glad to see Jay Harrington around. But it just didn't work. I couldn't find anything I actually liked about the character Nina and that made a lot of it hard to watch.
